This is what a GeeBee looks like without it's clothes. This was Jess Shryack's replica Gee Bee R-2 we were building in 1998. I built the control surfaces and some of the sheet metal parts. Yep, that's a R-985 and a constant speed prop...a LOT of engine. It was close to completion when Jess had a stroke and was unable to continue work on the plane. I think his son Mark has the plane now. It would be nice to see her fly.

Regards,
Ken

Great pic Ken, any chance you could follow up and find out if his son is flying it?

Shadow, I am going to Texas in June and will check on it then and report back. Jess Shryack and I both had Culver Cadets. I helped him restore his. There are pics of both these planes on my web site. More later, regards...Ken
